Test Chamber 13
Place portals as shown in the image. Use a portal to move the laser sideways and a time portal to send it into the future. You can take some damage from the laser to travel into the future. Once in the future, rearrange portals so the laser goes directly into the target, then proceed through the door.

Test Chamber 14
First, travel to the present using a time portal. Summon a reflector cube from the center switch and position it in the present as shown. Use a portal to direct a laser through the first node, then use this to reflect the laser into the next two nodes. Travel to the future.
In the future, use portals to bring a laser into the present through the time portal, ensuring it passes through the designated node. Retrieve the reflector cube from the future and bring it to the present via a time portal. Position the present reflector cube to hit all three nodes; adjust as necessary. If you moved the future reflector cube, return to the future to retrieve it again and bring it back to the present.
Finally, place the future reflector cube at the end of the nodes so it reflects the laser into the receiver, completing the chamber.

Test Chamber 15
Start by going through the particle field to the left. Place a portal where the laser hits the wall and a time portal on the opposite wall. Travel through the time portal to reach the future, bypassing the particle field. Head to the other side of the room and use another time portal to return to the present, now on the other side of the particle field.
Place a new portal on the upper wall above the laser room so the laser hits the first receiver. Travel back to the future and place a portal on the small wall in the laser room to aim at the receiver. Return to the present. The laser should still be hitting the first receiver, powering an elevating platform near the switch. Stand on this platform and shoot a time portal behind the node to raise the platform further.
This action will raise the platform, allowing you to summon a reflector cube. Place this reflector cube on the small lip above the second receiver. Travel to the future using a convenient time portal. Retrieve the future reflector cube and enter the laser room. Place another time portal in the laser room to bring the future reflector cube to the present. Position it to reflect the laser into the second receiver through the node.
Now, reach the other side of the particle field without passing through it. If you have a portal on the other side, use it. Otherwise, use a time portal to get around. You need to be in the present on the other side of the particle field. Climb the stairs and use a portal on the upper wall to hit the third receiver. Move the reflector cube onto the switch to complete the test chamber.
